Muscarinic Receptors in Stages of Alcohol and Substance Use Disorders

Sunday May 21, 2023

9:00 am - 10:30 am Central Time (CT)

Chair :

Morgane Thomsen
Region Hovedstadens Psykiatri and University of Copenhagen

Leigh Walker
Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health

This session compare and contrast the impact of selective modulation of muscarinic receptor subtypes across the addiction cycle of different addictive substances. Dr. Thomsen will discuss effects of M1 and M4 mAChR ligands on aspects of cocaine self-administration including choice, and cognitive disturbances. Dr. Banks's findings will highlight how M1 mAChR effects on methamphetamine vs food choice compare to those cocaine effects. Ms. Teal will contrast the effect of M1 and M5 mAChR ligands on aspects of opioid drug taking and seeking. Dr. Walker will present M4 and M5 mAChR ligand effects on alcohol taking and seeking in different brain regions in rats and humans.
